Helvetica?

Looks similar to Helv, but some of the characters are off. I wish it were bigger. i think it may be Haas Unica, but I cant tell because of the size.
It's a cool image, though and the day I was born is on there (Mar 30, 1965)

Helvetica 53 Extended
- Josev0
I thought it looked like Helv extended, too, except for the tail on the R. Maybe it's being distorted by the JPG compression.
I thought the extended version of Helv came in the early 80's, not the 60's.

I love the style of this piece. The guy was 57 when he designed this in 1965 (he was born in 1908). I mean, consider what graphic art looked like when he was young and in his twenties (if he was even an artist the). I kind of respect him for being able to adapt and change his work.
